Jiu Ge’s Beloved Spirit

——————————————————————————

"..." The man sat beside the bed and watched intently.

His fingers were hanging in the air, as if he wanted to press the call button, but he hesitated.

Come closer, then move away,

Close again, then move away again,

Like a testing child, the inexplicable nervousness and cowardice in his heart was pulling his fingers to prevent him from moving.

In fact, he could have told his old mother that she was not his girlfriend and was just rescuing him at that time.

However, there seems to be an indescribable feeling hidden in my heart.

Knowing that he and her can still be in contact.

At least, because of this incident, he was able to take the initiative to find her.

…

…

At half past nine in the evening,

The man who broke his sleeping pattern for the first time finally gently pressed the dial button.

When clicked,

His hands even trembled a little,

His heart was beating violently, God knows how fast he was beating.

The phone was nervously placed to my ear,

Listening to the slow "beep--", it felt like I was at the end of my life, waiting for God's judgment.

"Du-du-du--"

The period before the call was connected seemed to pass extremely slowly.

The breathing involuntarily follows the pattern of the sound, slowing down and uncontrollably rapid,

The long process makes me feel like I have let go of everything around me.

Everything disappeared, leaving only the sound in the ears, penetrating the eardrums and echoing in the mind.

"Hello?"

The call was finally connected.

The charming female voice always sounds particularly pleasant in the silent night.

Lu Yaoting immediately tightened her grip on her phone, "Miss Yun..."

Yun Si had just finished taking a shower and was wiping her hair.

Hearing this, he smiled very gently, "Yes, Mr. Lu."

She thought he wouldn't call.

Lu Yaoting began to rub the phone case unconsciously and asked in a low voice, "If I call you now, will it disturb you?"

"No." Yun Si was very patient.

The man hummed, lowered his eyelashes,

He doesn't seem to know how to communicate with women, nor does he know how to speak.

After a moment of silence, he said dryly,

"I...I need your help with something."

Yun Si smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I want...I want you to pretend to be my girlfriend again."

He paused, as if he felt that it was not good to say this. He frowned and corrected,

"It's not pretending, it's just——"

"Last time, my mother remembered you and wanted to meet you."

He seemed to feel that it was wrong to say this, and pursed his lips, "It's just——"

Yun Si smiled and answered thoughtfully, "You want me to meet your mother, right?"

The man on the phone was silent.

After a while, he said in a low voice, "If Miss Yun is forced, forget it."

Yun Si raised her eyebrows and glanced at the phone screen.

He hasn't hung up yet,

After thinking about it, she said with some humor, "Don't force it."

"Send me your time and address, and I'll be there on time."

The man responded quickly,

It seemed that he had been waiting for her.

When she was about to hang up the phone, Yun Si suddenly thought of something and said,

"Mr. Lu, when making a reservation at the restaurant, can it be more private?"

"Because I am an actor. When I go out, there may be paparazzi following me."

Lu Yaoting hummed softly, as if he didn't even realize how tight the phone was against his ear.

The phone hangs up.

"Beep--" came the sound, cold and mechanical.

The man slowly put down his phone and looked at the screen for a long time.
